Shettihalli Wildlife Sanctuary, Wildlife refuge in Shimoga, India
The Shettihalli Wildlife Sanctuary spans 395.6 square kilometers of tropical evergreen and semi-evergreen forests in Karnataka, providing habitats for diverse species.
The establishment of the sanctuary in November 1974 transformed an agricultural region into a protected environment for conservation of local wildlife species.
Local residents contribute to environmental education by sharing their observations of migratory patterns and seasonal changes in wildlife behavior at the sanctuary.
Visitors can explore the sanctuary between 6:00 AM and 6:00 PM daily except Tuesdays, with safari tours operating from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
The Mandagadde Bird Sanctuary, located on an island within the Tunga River, forms part of Shettihalli and serves as a nesting site for water birds.
